There is lemon seed in the glass;" said
her father. "You might have swallowed it,"
Rita laughed. 1t was such trifle, she
told her father. But Valdez would have his
way. He poured out another glass, and ex-
amined every particle of food that came into
he room. He prohibited meat because it
might produce fever, He was just as particu-
lar about everything, and before the day was
over Rita grew so nervous that she did not
much care whether she lived or died. Be-

appropriation bill would fail unless
he could reach the Capitol i'm time to
sign it, he entered his carriage and
reached the presidents room at the
senate end of the Capitol only fifteen
minutes before the time that congress
must expire by constitution. There
he and his cabinet glanced at the bills
that were brought to him by swift
messengers, and such as were APP
proved received his signature. The
intelligence that the president was in
the building spread rapidly. There
were not less than five thousand peo-
pie in the Capitol, and he had not
been in his room three minutes before
the police had to form Gordon
around the door TO prevent the intru-
sion of the throngs of people who
pressed forward to catch a sight of
the president. The police had a
hard time of it until Mr.. Cleveland
left the Capitol a few minutes after
adjournment. He had had only three
hours rest since Wednesday night,
but he showed no signs of fatigue,
and after returning to the White
House he held the usual daily recep-
ton of visitors i'm the east room.

Erection and Dedication of New
Church in Barton.

Something more than year ago the Of
fetal members of the Methodist church
decided to rebuild church on the site
OF the old brick church, erected In 1929
It was ascertained that several mem hers,
and friends outside the church, were will
Ing TO give generous sums, provided
good substantial house could be erected
to take the place of the old structure,
then considerably out of repair, and not
in style and convenience. A subscription
paper put in circulation, stlpulatlng
that no subscription should be good until
81 900 had been subscribed. This sum
was easily raised, one brother of the
church pledging $1,000, and several other
parties pledging from 800 to $3.50 The
canvass promised the raising OF S6,Ooo
Most of the pew owners iu the old church
had consented to give their pew right that
the new building might have free seats.
Geo. IL. Guernsey of Montpelier, arch
tect and contractor was asked to furnish
the plan of house which could be built
for Sc 900 He submitted a plan, with
dra wings, that were satisfactory and fin
ally look the contract to build the house
above the wall foundations, all complete,
for $4,000. The contract did not put in
heating, lighting, carpets, seat cushions,
furniture or vestry seats, but otherwise
furnished a house. The contract called
for house AXIS feet on the ground,
with vestry, ladies parlOr, kitchen, pam
try, etc. The house was to be thorough
ly built, in all particulars. The building
was To he slate covered, brick veneered,
set on strong, deep underpinning stone,
with st. John, p. @, limestone trim
mings, cream colOred ornaments, colored
glass windows, with emblematical heads,
etc. The inside wood finish was to be of
ash, the walls to be frescoed, and every
thing done to make neat and convenient

o. NJ. Tinkham, having received
intelligence from a. W. Cheever,
secretary of the Massachusetts cat
tie commission, of the presence of a
number of diseased cattle in that
state, calls the attention of Vermont
cattlemen to the fact. Mr.. Cheever
says, ''Don't send any cattle to our
markets just vet from your state
1t is doubtful if there will be another
store cattle market for some weeks
Considering the nearness of the dis
ease, and the former free movement
of cattle between the states, Mr..
Tinkham suggests the prOpriety of
the appointment by the governor
of commission for Vermont, which
the law empowers him to do, which
could cooperate with the Massachu-
sets commission, and be ready to
meet without delay any trouble which
may arise. Farmers and cattle deal
ers will do well TO use extraordina-
~ caution In transactions and in
handling cattle in view of these
facts.
